Chiaroscuro Quartet
The Beethoven Experience
Beethoven String Quartets
Anguish and violence might not usually be selling points, but they abound in Beethoven’s Grosse Fugue, the almost terrifyingly powerful final movement of his String Quartet No. 13, which became a standalone piece after musicians refused to perform it, such is its difficulty.
The trailblazing Chiaroscuro Quartet plays this and two of Beethoven’s expressive quartets in this concert.
